Re: [Webware-discuss] HTTPAdapter.py v0.0

[Jeff C. <jcl...@bl...>]

I've used the BaseHTTPServer class a bit and eventually stopped because
it seemed to be blocking with no hope of fixing it as far as I could
tell.  For example, start the server, telnet to port 80 or whatever and
while that connection is open, try loading a page.  I ended up having to
use the AsyncChat stuff and implementing it from scratch in order to
resolve this.
